Hi folks,
I posted this on the thread concerning AC Functional Airports, but got no answer after two days, so I go general . O'd love to ue those splendid airports, but can't. I am a macUser -- don't know if it has anything to do with the problem, but here it is : when I dezip the file (last version), it comes out like this :

apparently filejuicer bundles everything together, which makes impossible for me to install as advised by the readme.  Help, anyone ?

Since I've never used a Mac or Filejuicer myself, I wish another Mac user could step in and help (I think I'll send Lee a pm...)

The files installed by the two installers should be these:

What Mac OS and version of Filejuicer are you using?

What Mac OS and version of Filejuicer are you using?

Hello,what a relief to know I am not alone in the dark...

Mac OS Snow Leopard (mac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)
Filejuicer 4.14

Mac OS Snow Leopard (mac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)
Filejuicer 4.14

I can't provide much Mac help, but I did check the FileJuicer site and found there is an update to v4.26 available.  I'd suggest that you update FileJuicer and try it again.

[callagrafx]

Failing that, you could try Crossover (http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxmac/download_trial) and use the windows Installer, then simply copy the files from the "installed" location to your game plugins folder....

Alas it's not Filejuicer : same dezip, in which I can't know which is which and consequently can't "enable" anything...

At least, I have a newer version of the very useful Filejuicer !

I'm gona try Callagrafx' idea, albeit reluctantly (I'm a dieheard Mac user... the idea of anything Windows on my computer give me the creeps (BTW, Callagrafx : thanks for so many wonderful bats)

We're going to test it in a sandbox city. A big thanks anyway.

[hey, does that mean that some plugins that resisted me before woiuld now be accessible !!! hurrah ! ]

 It plops ! It maxcapacitates ! IT WOOORKS ! (all mac users over here, hear-hear !)

I mean it will work when we've installed the zillion deps But mostly,it works (is there a smiley for "crossing fingers" ?).

Thank you again, guys. If I have any problems with this awesome plugin, I'll check the topic here...

[ScottFTL]

I'm glad you finally got the problem sorted.  I know it's been bothering you.   

[RippleJet]

I'm also glad you've found a solution!
And I've moved this thread to the AC Functional Airports support board...
Thus, I hope other Mac users could benefit from it.

I've been using Macs since 1990 and always will, but the day Apple switched to Intel and allowed us to install Windows was a great day... now I can use 3DS Max on my superior hardware
